13) DAC = 20, ACB = 40 and ADE = 30
14) A quadrilateral is said to be cyclic if all the four vertices of it lie on a circle.
15) By subtracting the measure of each given angles from 180°, we can find the
required corresponding opposite angles in the cyclic quadrilateral.
16)
In the figure, ABCD is parallelogram with A = α and B = .
C and D
As ABQP is a cyclic quadrilateral, Q = 180 α and P = 180
Considering the quadrilateral PQCD, QPD = .and PQC = α
QPD + QCD = + α = 180
PQD + PDC = α + = 180
Hence P, Q, C and D are concyclic.
17)
To prove XYDZ is cyclic quadrilateral:
Consider s, CYP and CAD.
PCY DCA
CYP CAD (As XY is parallel to AB)
CYP CAD.
CD 2 CP or CP PD
So, YP is perpendicular bisector of CD.
CYP PYD A (As CYP PYD)
XYD A--------------------------------------------------------------------(1)
YDB 180 A (As XY is parallel to AB) -------------------------- (2)
BZX BAC A (As XZ is parallel to AC)
So, XZD 180 A ------------------------------------------------------(3)
YXZ A (As XY parallel to AB and XZ is parallel to CA) --------(4)
From (1) and (2),
XYD + YDB 180.
From (3) and (4),
ZXY + YDZ 180.
Hence the result.
18)
In the figure, AB is parallel to CD and AD = BC.
Construction: Draw perpendiculars from C and D to cut AB at N and M respectively.
Considering s ADM and BCN,
DM = CN (AB is parallel to CD)
AD = BC (Given)
So, ADM BCN. (By RHS theorem of congruency)
So, MAD NBC = (say)-----------------------------------------(1)
And , ADC BCD = 180 -------------------------------------(2)
From (1) and (2),
BAD + BCD 180.
ABC + ADC 180.
Hence the required result is proved.

So, PQ is a diameter of the given circle.
20) DPC = 40 and BQC = 20
21)
Join SB and SC.
1 P 180 -----(i) (sum of opposite angles of cyclic quadrilateral is 180°)
Similarly,
2 Q 180 -----(ii)
3 R 180 -----(iii)
Adding (i),(ii) and (iii), we get
1 P 2 Q 3 R 180 180 180
P Q R 1 2 3 3 180
P Q R S 6 90 [ 1 2 3 S]
P Q R S 6 right angles
22) i) BAD = 60
ii) ABD = 30
iii) CBD = 30
iv) ADC = 120
OAD ODA 60 (since OA and OD radius of the circle)
AOD 180 OAD ODA
180 60 60
60
OAD ODA AOD 60
AOD is an equilateral triangle.
23) x = 36° and y = 60°
24) b) 180°
25)
DAB + BCD = 180°
[Sum of opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is supplementary]
DAB + ABC = 180°
[The adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary]
Therefore, BCD = ABC and DAB = BCD = ABC = 90° (i)
Similarly, we get CDA = ABC and BCD = CDA = ABC = 90° (ii)
From (i) and (ii), we can say that ABCD is a rectangle.
26) x = 99° [Hint: Sum of the opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180°].
27) b) 110°
28) d) 80°
29)
DAB + BCD = 180°
[Sum of opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is supplementary]
DAB + ABC = 180°
[The adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary]
Therefore, BCD = ABC
Also, BCD + ABC = 180°
So, BCD = ABC = 90°
Therefore, DAB = BCD = ABC = 90°-----(i)
Similarly, we get CDA = BCD and BCD = CDA = ABC = 90°-----(ii)
From (i) and (ii), we can say that ABCD is a rectangle.
30) Consider PQR , PQ = PR (Given), therefore by “Angles opposite to equal sides
of an isosceles triangle are equal”, PQR PRQ
or SQR TRQ (i)
QRTS is a cyclic quadrilateral (Given)
therefore, SQR RTS 180 o (ii)
From (i) and (ii), we get, TRQ RTS 180 o
By “If any one pair of interior angles on the same side of the transversal is
supplementary then the lines are parallel.”, ST is parallel to QR
31) ∠BAC = 40°
32)
ADC = 85˚
33)
DAL = MBC (Since ABCD is an isosceles triangle)
Also DAL + ADC = 180˚ (Supplementary angles).
Thus MBC + ADB = 180˚. Hence ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.
34)
∠BAE = ∠BEA (since AD BC ) = ∠CEF (Vertically opposite angles)
∠FCE = ∠FCB = ∠BAF (angles in same segment)
So FCE is an isosceles triangle.
Hence, EF = FC
35)
Join AF and FD.
∠A + ∠C = 180° ∠EAD + ∠FCD = 90°
But ∠FCD = ∠FAD = 90°
So ∠EAD = ∠FAD = 90° ∠EAF = 90°
Hence, EF is a diameter of the circle.
36) Join AO and OB.. ∠AOB = 2 × ∠APB = 140° ∠ACB = 40° (AOBC cyclic)
So ∠ABD = 180° – 100° = 80° (ABCD is cycle)
37) ACF = 115°AD and CF are parallel lines.
38) (i) x = 45, y = 30
(ii) x = 120
39) x° = 110° (an exterior angle of a cyclic quadrilateral is equal to the interior
opposite angle)
y° = 85° (an exterior angle of a cyclic quadrilateral is equal
to the interior opposite angle)
40) 5 sides Pentagon
41) AB = AP = DC ∠BAD = ∠CDA ∠B + ∠CDA = 180°
So the opposite angles of trapezium ABCD are supplementary.
Hence, ABCD is cyclic.
42) In triangle AED, ∠DAE + ∠AED + ∠ADE = 180
(x + y) + x + z = 180°
2x = 90° y + z = 90°
x = 45°
43)
∠ADP = 90°
∠APD + ∠PAD = 90°
∠APD = 90° – 30° = 60° ∠CPD = 60°
44)
So ∠AED = ∠ACB. In cyclic quadrilateral BCED, ∠AED = ∠DBC
Also ∠DBC = ∠ACB = ∠ACB (Angles opposite to equal sides).
So ∠AED = ∠ACB.
45) x = 130°Exterior angle in a triangle is equal to sum of the interior opposite
angles.y = 60°Angles in the same segment are equal.
46) Exterior
47) supplementary
